Things to do in Kalpa
A walk to Roghi village.
Blessed with so many natural wonders, the beautiful Roghi village is situated 8 km away from the town of Kalpa and is surrounded by lovely gardens and village houses. This place is popular for its apple orchards and ethnic village life, which includes temples, monasteries, Kinnauri style buildings, etc. The tourists love visiting this mind blowing destination, which is blessed with such an exquisite beauty.
The road to Roghi from Kalpa is a bit dangerous as there is a
cliff, which hugs one way road from Kalpa, crossing which seems impossible for
many tourists. However, there are some adventure freaks, who love this route
and they come down to Roghi only to enjoy the spectacular view of the Kinnaur
Kailash range, which can be seen from here. The Roghi village is built on the
slope of a mountain and is covered with apple, apricot, and chilgoza trees. More Attractions
